Balloons (2017) lyrics

[Verse 1]
It’s late at night
I’m wide awake
I sit and watch the nurses pace
The sterile taste of recycled air
Lingers in the room we share

[Pre-Chorus 1]
My time is running out
But i think i’m ready now
I count the hours down, down, down

[Chorus]
I’m letting go when i used to be so afraid of letting go
Cause i know i don’t fear a thing
So let me float like balloons in the sky
So let me float like balloons

I’m letting go when i used to be so afraid of letting go
Cause i know i don’t fear a thing
So let me float like balloons in the sky
So let me float like balloons

[Verse 2]
I’ve come to know this borrowed bed
About as well as my best friend
The clock ward sound of these machines
Sing like birds but never sleep
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I have my memories
More than i’ll ever need
I count the hours down, down, down

[Chorus]
I’m letting go when i used to be so afraid of letting go
Cause i know i don’t fear a thing
So let me float like balloons in the sky
So let me float like balloons

I’m letting go when i used to be so afraid of letting go
Cause i know i don’t fear a thing
So let me float like balloons in the sky
So let me float like balloons

[Bridge]
Say goodbye
(Say Goodbye)
One last time
(One last time)
This world is beautiful and kind
But no longer is it mine

[Verse 3]
It’s late at night
I’m wide awake
I sit and watch the nurses pace
[Chorus]
I’m letting go when i used to be so afraid of letting go
Cause i know i don’t fear a thing
So let me float like balloons in the sky
So let me float like balloons

I’m letting go when i used to be so afraid of letting go
Cause i know i don’t fear a thing
So let me float like balloons in the sky
So let me float like balloons
